General Description

The PVT212 Series Photovoltaic Relay is a single-

pole, normally open solid-state relay that can replace

electromechanical relays in many applications. It

utilizes International Rectifier’s proprietary HEXFET

power MOSFET as the output switch, driven by an

integrated circuit photovoltaic generator of novel

construction. The output switch is controlled by

radiation from a GaAlAs light emitting diode (LED)

which is optically isolated from the photovoltaic

generator.

These SSRs are specifically designed for industrial

control and peripheral telecom applications. Series

PVT212 Relays are packaged in a 6-lead molded

DIP package with either thru-hole or surface mount

(‘gull-wing’) terminals. It is available in standard

plastic shipping tubes or on tape-and-reel. Please

refer to part identification information.
